So I just ran for thirty minutes for my very first time and I am beyond amazed at the transformational powers of this program. In my 40 active minutes (including the ten mins warmup/down walking stretches) I travelled 6.05 km!!! I am so proud of myself. 2 runs away from graduation - I've got this! Thank you so much to everyone who told me I would manage the three minute run and motivated me to keep going. Every single post in this forum has helped me get this far. Anyone reading this who is at the beginning of this journey - you've got this too - even if you don't realise it yet! Just keep on keeping on.
